  • Mauro Mandrioli

    Mauro Mandrioli obtained his degree in Biological Sciences in 1996 and four years later his PhD in Animal Biology at the University of Modena. Since 2010 he is associate professor in genetics at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, after working from 2001 to 2010 as researcher in genetics. His main interests are related to the cytogenetics and epigenetics of pest crop insects with holocentric chromosomes.
